Save Star Trek ... The Sign?

It's the last remaining artifact from the Hilton Las Vegas experience

More than 40 years ago, Bjo Trimble led a nation of "Star Trek" fans to convince NBC to save their show.

Now Vernon Wilmer wants to follow in those footsteps, but for a slightly different cause.

Wilmer, a former employee of Star Trek: The Experience at the Las Vegas Hilton, says a sign outside the hotel is still advertising the attraction that closed in 2008. Before Hilton decides to finally rip it down, Wilmer wants to save it one way or another.
